What bargains have you picked up? (The Bragging Thread)

[Crisp_Rapper]

for ?950 instead of the usual ?1500, and with a free ?70 cycle carrier.

Somewhat of a bargain IMO. All-Star Pro Wrestling 3 on JPN PS2. Usually goes for around ?40-?50.

Picked it up Brand New off EBay for ?25.

I wait until Jan/Feb when buying a bike (all two times I've done it), just because you can get massive discounts like that on 'last years' model.

Boxed Hori Playstation Fighting Stick (8 buttons, turbo fire, metal base etc.) ?15 delivered from Ebay.

I noticed today that Another World online have VF4 sticks for ?20 and Tekken Tag Tournament sticks for about the same, whether they have any in stock and how much the ask for shipping I don't know.

Where on the website ?

[tankplanker]

the VF4 sticks are now 29 quid, and the tekken stick is still 20 quid (but there is no picture). Just do a search for joystick.

Hi

My recent bargain is this (spot the seamless joining of two photos):



I got it for ?100 from my local Game Needs new pads, a ?2.99 neon tube and some paint touching up but otherwise it is in good condition and everything works, even the Dreamcast.

4 PSX games for 7.49? Yes please! Okay the games aren't great, but the price can't be beat. Driver 2, Destruction Derby Raw, Rogue Spear and Music 2000. Can't complain.

Bangai-O for Dreamcast for a fiver wasn't bad, neither was Unreal Tournament for PC for 2 quid and Max Payne for PC for 3 quid, although the latter don't work properly.

Also picked up Mortal Kombat for 99p and Super Thunder Blade for 25p - both boxed without instructions. Quite a good day

WE6:FE - ?8

JSR boxset - ?25

SC2 GC - ?20

Just some of my recent bargains from Tokyo last week. Good times.

About a year ago a store went nuts and sold all their old games. New PS2 games went for 39:- which is 3?. The normal price is 599:- for a game...so...I bought like 30 games

[Smeghead]

Currys in birstall went mental one lovely sunny afternoon, when I called in to find a huge (much bigger than I'd ever seen) Dreamcast section and a couple of posters stating "ALL GAMES ?4.97!!!" then another one just below "ALL DREAMCAST GAMES BUY 1 GET 1 FREE!!!" joy oh joy, walked out with about 4 carrier bags full, this offer included titles like Soul Calibur, Sega Bass Fishing, Rayman 2, Legacy of Kain, etc

[Blu3Flame]

My only recent bargin is pretty much all of those, all brand new for ?30 The bloke even chucked in a brand new link cable for free.

If you insist on reviving this thread, my recent bargains have been:
A 64mbit Gameboy Xchanger boxed in good nick for ?35 inc.
Unboxed Action Replay Online for ?1.30 inc on eBay (I already had the GB>PC lead and box. IMO this is the best Action Replay for GBC since it supports savestates)
Powerstone for Jap DC for ?3 inc
New Neogeo Pocket Colour with 6 games for ?37.50 inc on these very forums.
A SNES with 12 games, 2 controllers and a joystick off of another Forum for ?25 inc
Everybody's Golf 2 for ?4.97 at GAME
Parappa the Rapper for ?4.97 at GAME
Top Spin Tennis for ?15

I'm sure there is some more stuff, but I can't remember...

[Pacman555]

I bought a boxed NES with the original manual, 2 official controllers, Duck Hunt + Mario Bros (in one cart) with plastic slip case, Super Mario Bros 2 (boxed with manual and slip case), and Super Mario Bros 3 (ditto), all in for a tenner off someone at school!
Fool!
A different time, in Cash Converters, I got a mint PAL DC (unmodded) with 1 pad, 1 official VMU, and Fisherman's Friend-esque Shenmue and JSRF, for 20 of your english pounds.
Result!

Ive already bragged about this bargain in another thread, but as I have lost out in the past on some deals I like to remember when something good happens, anyway let the bragging begin:
I managed to buy 5 copies of The Zelda Ltd Edition bonus disk from WH Smiths quite recently for just 5p
so each cost only 1p, I dont think this bargain could easily be beaten, and I managed to ebay 4 copies of the game on ebay (kept one for myself) for between ?19.50 and ?28 not bad really.
